True. I am just regurgitating what LCGuy said in my thread: Nice score. Just please, whatever you do, make sure you do end up erasing his old files, without reading them. T…

You are going to give us Mac collectors a bad name! } Oh noes! Click to expand... What's wrong with poking around in the hard drive? Not only do I not care what's on it, if…

Post up some pictures!

The printer is a LaserWriter Pro 600.

Very nice! I think you should just pop a new HD in it. It may cost too much to get that board. Click to expand... Without seeing what was on the drive? Where's the fun in that?…

I got an email from a person in my area who asked if I wanted an old "Performa type" computer, with large B&W office printer. He was located only 2 blocks from me, so of co…

Yay I am .11 of all posts!

Well I ripped it to shreds. I installed a DVD Burner and an Airport Card, and its a freaking monster to open. My hands got all cut up. So while there I examined the video cable. It…

I was once able to use my Sawtooth as a glorified external Firewire CD drive by shuffling the IDE cables about so the CD was on the first bus. Then connect by Firewire to other Mac…

I was under the impression that Intel Macs could not boot from USB, but PPC Macs could (at least of the proper vintage). I have booted G3 iMacs from Zip drives (with an ISO filesy…

As to G4s and USB booting, my G4/500DP happily boots from a USB drive. I've booted Leopard and OS 9 off various USB drives.

Hee-hee, yeah, OS 9 is a performance monster on my G4/500DP

Being a large part of this community is not about having the most posts or being seen the most often, it's about having well-written posts that bring something to the table. It's n…

I don't even want to know what my post count is, why do we even have a counter for that sort of thing? Click to expand... It's always funny to hear that from the person who doe…

If I recall, back on the old Snitz board I hit over 5000 posts. And I will admit - I did more than my fair share of postcount++; back then - I was young, and despite being 18, stil…

I got 9 installed. And DAMN it flys.

As they say...."its not how big it is, its how you use it!" Click to expand... That's what she said. Alright, putting my adult cap back on. I don't even want to know what…

Or a projector lamp.

Have you tried booting an OS X Live CD?
